Something came up in my life yesterday, and I’m going to be taking a break for a bit.  I post again probably after the 17th.  Thanks for hanging out with me.

I am down well it’s not even really a half pound but from 156.4 to 156.2 so it’s really down .2 pounds but this week I really need the half pound statement.  I am still working it and that is really all that matters I’m not up I’m down!

Hello all!

I had a great run on Sunday it was beautiful, just absolutely breathtaking.  We ran the actual trail we are going to run for our upcoming 5 mile race.  Did I happen to mention this is both of our first organized run and it’s a 5 MILE not kilometer and it’s a freaking crazy trail!

The trail, called crooked lake trail, runs throughout the woods it’s a very hilly dirt trail. When we were running the trail on Sunday it was still icy and snowy in spots.  But it didn’t matter when I was running up and down those hills giving it all I had not getting out of breath, or at least as out of breath as I would have a few months ago, and feeling the sting of the cold wind whip across my face I felt euphoric. I was a runner.  This once just an exercise idea has turned into a hobbie almost a love.

To celebrate in true HotHarmony fashion I celebrated this fantastic acomplishment by going to the running store.  There I did something everyone should do and get properly fitted for a pair of running shoes. What they do is have you take off your shoes and stand in front of them so they can look at your arches and see how tall they are, I have short arches. Then they have you walk up and down the shop with your pant legs pulled up so they can see if  your ankles roll and if they do do they roll toward the inside or out.  Mine roll toward the inside, so I got these spiffy super comfortable stability shoes from Asics GT-2130.
